A PAGE OF REMARKABLE FIREPLACES AT LEFT—At Haddon Hall, Deibyshire, this old fireplace and the Old English Oak wains- coting is still in existence, though the drawing was made more than half a century ago. It was around fireplaces of this sort that the traditional Christmas of Old England grew. To mention those old celebrations suggests old oak-paneled rooms of this sort and we can hardly think of the rooms themselves without visions of glorious old holidays and the finest traditions of home life. BELOW—This Dutch kitchen dates from the seventeenth century and is in the Ancient Draperer's House, Leyden. Note the wooden shelf and hood and the tiled walls and floor. ABOVE—This remarkably Italian looking room is in the residence of William G. Mather, Cleveland, Ohio, and was designed by Charles A. Piatt, of New York. AT RIGHT—The rooms in the Trianons are less elaborate than at Versailles. In this, the Salon a Musiquc at the Grand Trianon, the wooden paneling is painted putty color, and there is none of the gilding of ornament that was used so lavishly by Louis XV at \'er- sailles.
